Resistance laboratory
Out of 25 tests methods, the most frequently involve challenges of raw materials and finished banknotes:
SUBSTRATE tests: physical stretch of cotton-based substrate, resistance of polymer, and resistance to tearing and double-folding.
INK tests: colour density of ink used for offset printing process quality, and the physical behaviour of ink on the printing presses.
FINISHED BANKNOTE tests: durability of various printed and applied security features, final physical stress resistance, and resistance to soiling.
